I basically made this program to convert Lemmy comments to videos just like those Reddit videos on YouTube. I know that there are a few bugs here and there, I will fix them later. For now, the most obvious one is the transition effect video not showing up during transitions, only the audio does. There also might be issues when you run it, I didn't test if it works when the github version gets cloned so tell me if something is wrong, thanks. I also just got it to work as I wanted even though there are improvements I could make if it weren't 10pm for me. I will do the improvements when I have the time, for now, take this one as a alpha version.

Anyways, what do you guys think?

Edit: Sorry about the previous error, made the program remove the .gitkeep files beforehand as they break the program

Edit 2: Added a config.json for easy configuration. I also made a quick project blog page explaining how it works: https://asudox.dev/projects/lemmyctts

Can you link to one of these videos? Would be good to have an example in the github readme somewhere. I have no idea what this is about. What reddit videos?

For example this one: https://youtu.be/Rz6RDJNwe7Y?si=gVG2SLMh6vGIjZVX

Mine isn't as advanced as the current ones though.

Wow, that has 43k views.

People who make these videos also buy views to appear interesting, until organic views are consistent

Yeah, though Lemmy's current asklemmy communities aren't that active, so I doubt you can get something interesting all the time.

Those videos do really well on TikTok too. You need Minecraft gameplay in the background though lol

I could've done that as well, though it might slow the video creation even more and also is extra work. I might think about doing it someday as an optional option.
